The goal of CM6 is to be a go-to robotic arm framework for people interested in robotics. CM6 uses 6 gimbal BLDC motors paired with small gear ratio gearboxes ( from 1:5 to 1:9), by doing that it is passively compliant and safe. Each Joint is using an S-Drive BLDC driver that is mounted on modular actuator designs for specific gimbal motors. Design can be changed easily by using different size aluminum extrusions or changing the gear ratio of modular gearboxes.
The total price of this first version is around 1000 dollars in raw materials. But I believe that the future version could be pushed to around 700-800 dollars.

Plans have you I see!

I am very interested in this, but I only can use 3D PRINTER, nothing else... how do I start?

@@source-robotics Simple welding wires~I can do it, but a detailed planning drawing may be required. I am studying mechanical manufacturing. I understand the structure better. I hope you can teach you more relevant control experience.
